Makes sense. Singer is freaking crazy when it comes to weird covers... *shakes head* I like The Cab so I can't say much about it sucking, although it truly might.

I don't think you understand. We're talking about covering QUEEN. You don't do that. You just don't do that.

Trying to stand in Freddie Mercury's shoes is like putting yourself in the stocks and setting out buckets of tomatoes for people to throw at you.

It's either sheer, unadulterated arrogance from someone who is stupid enough to believe that they can stand up to Freddie's talent - and here's a secret: they can't - or it's complete and utter stupidity.

Oh, no, I completely agree. It's not something that should be done!! Ever!! I'm just saying that it's not shocking to me that Singer would do it. I think it's a mix of arrogance and stupidity. They have to learn eventually I guess. Getting booed might help that. *shrugs*

Curious, where did you see this at?

It was on AbsolutePunk.net.

I kind of suspect it's a bit of a stunt to get noticed, but it's highly likely to backfire.

It may be.
